Abstract: Triacyl glycerides and phospholipids are examples of more complex lipids that include natural fatty acids; these lipids provide structural and energy storage functions in cells. So, fatty acids, both synthetic and natural, have the potential to influence cell signaling via influencing lipid membrane structure, microdomain organization, and other physical features. Membrane lipid therapy is an approach that aims to regulate the of cell membranes by means of medication delivery, which may reverse pathogenic processes by means of structural re-adaptation of cell membranes. Membrane phospholipids’ biophysical characteristics and activities are dictated by the three kinds of fatty acids that are incorporated into them. Through the integration of Through the use of functional two-photon microscopy (fTPM) of cellular membranes and lipidomic characterization of membrane phospholipids, this study aimed to examine how fatty acids affect the biophysical properties of membranes under different dietary and clinical situations.
